I really don't understand how these decisions are made. 

unfortunately I don't think the NCAA does either

EDIT:  With this they can simply input the options and spin.  Let fate decide.

I didn't watch the game, just saw the highlights on BTN after the IU game, but Aaron Henry looks like he is gonna be a baller. 

MSU as a team on the other hand? I know it's early and they likely will settle down, but they sure look like a team that has been reading their press. 

 

Anyone watching them versus Georgia?

Yep. Aaron Henry is going to be excellent. Cassius is what we all hope Rob can mold into. But MSU as a team? I think they’re certainly a top 15 team, probably a 2-3 seed in the tournament, but definitely not a top 3 team in the country, especially without Langford

I know some love Bill Walton, but I can’t stand him as a color analyst. Doesn’t add a lot of value

UGa looks very familiar :) Dribble around until someone gets free for a drive or hoists a three. I'm not a Crean hater, but his teams definitely have disturbing patterns and are entirely dependent on the talent.

Agreed. Sometimes he's funny, but usually just stream of consciousness. It's a verbal acid trip.

Walton’s great! Too many broadcasters take themselves way to seriously and brown nose the hell out of cheating programs and coaches - to try to stay in theirs good graces and not step on toes. They propagate cheating, one and done and the underbelly of college ball by turning a blind eye and lionizing low character kids, coaches and programs.  Walton doesn’t give a f@&;,  just puts on the mic and has fun with it all regardless.

Edwards hasn’t looked good against Dayton and MSU.

Anthony Edwards will likely be a lotto pick and gone after one losing season at Georgia, but he's now down to 35% FG for the season, and cupcake time is almost over.

Pre-season Georgia got more top 25 play than IU. That's just silly.

All style no substance. Maybe 10 years ago Crean could have been successful in the SEC not anymore though.

Give me a junior Al Durham over a freshman Anthony Edwards all day long.

[IUc2016 7,064]

I sat court side for Tennessee vs. Georgia last year and Tennessee won by almost 50. Now granted Georgia was really bad and UT was really good, but watching Crean and his team up close I am still baffled that he was the coach at Indiana University for 9 seasons.

Obviously you have never watched him with a buzz.

Kind of ironic based on the fact that he was likely one of the biggest beneficiaries at a notoriously dirty program.

1) The cupboard was totally bare

2) Total rebuilds take 4 years

3) One of the youngest teams in the nation...(repeat next year)

Lol. Waaaaay too soon. Kid is crushing it in the second half. I suspect Sparty is grossly overrated this season
